Therapists in Heartside, Grand Rapids, MI

I am a queer and neurodivergent relationship therapist here to help you create an affirming and safe space in your life. As an LMFT I specialize in helping couples and families build and repair strong and healthy relationships. I specialize in working helping folks with trauma and will view our work together through a trauma lens. I am passionate about helping people through physical trauma, relationship trauma, and religious trauma. I am gender, sexuality, religious/spiritual, and neurodiverse-affirming. I am currently offering virtual therapy services, but you and your family members can be in different locations in Michigan.

My take is simple. Life is a gift, not always easy, but precious and brief. I work with individuals who want to live with authenticity and purpose, but also with serenity and grace. We come by our difficulties honestly, so there's scant value in beating ourselves up. I encourage people to move beyond shame and blame, and focus instead on building the lives they want.

Feeling lost, overwhelmed, and stuck in repetitive patterns can happen to anyone. Sometimes having a space to name the emotions and how you feel can start the process of healing and change. I will work with you at your pace to help build insight and awareness of your experiences and healing. I believe you have the ability to take control of your life and become more connected to yourself and others. My goal as a therapist is to help you gain the tools to uncover your full potential and develop a deep understanding of yourself to foster your own personal growth and healing.

Making adjustments in your life can feel overwhelming and is not something you have to do alone. Therapy is a partnership that holds space for us to come together and explore any stuck points that may be holding you back from living the life you want. My approach to psychotherapy is relationship-focused and person-centered, recognizing that each individual deserves unique care.

Whatever age and stage of life you are in, life can become challenging and stressful. If you feel anxious, depressed, or just simply lost therapy can offer you support and balance. I am a neurodiverse-affirming, LGBTQIA affirmative, and culturally aware therapist who offers authenticity and a space where you will be seen, heard, and respected as an authority and expert on your life and your strengths and challenges. In therapy, I will help you learn to understand and embrace your identity, find compassion for yourself, develop coping strategies for living in a stressful world, and help you find your unique balance.

I am neurodivergent, neurodiversity-affirming, trans-masculine, and nonbinary. I believe all bodies & beings are inherently worthy of love, respect, and existence. My practice is based on holistic principles - if one part of us is hurting, it is likely other parts of us are too. People are not one monolithic identity and acknowledging and accepting ourselves for who we are is key to seeing all the facets of what makes us our amazing selves. Through a client-centered approach, I strive to encourage clients to explore and accept themselves by guiding reflection on how nature and nurture might have led them to where they are now.

Hi, I'm glad you're here. Beginning therapy can be a bit overwhelming and I'm here to help you figure out whether I can create a safe space for you to begin the process. I know having the "right fit" is important because feeling comfortable with your therapist is essential. My extensive experience in Mental Health, Substance Abuse, and Crisis Intervention allows me the ability to assist you in your growth, healing and change process. I have worked in a wide range of settings since 2006 from inpatient and residential treatment to outpatient MAT (medication assisted treatment). My additional credentials involve Addiction.

Have you been considering completing testing for ADHD or autism? Maybe your child was identified as neurodivergent, and you relate to the way they think, feel, and act. Maybe you’ve seen information online that has led you to question or self-identify as autistic or having ADHD. If you’ve looked at formal testing, you've seen that lots of places cater to children, or you might have gotten discouraged when you learned that the wait for testing is 6 months+. If this sounds like you, you’ve found the right place. Since opening a private practice earlier this year, I have immediate openings for psychological testing.

I am experienced in helping clients with a variety of life challenges including anxiety, depression, ADHD, gender identity, trauma, grief, and anger management. I specialize in working with teens and young adults in the LGBTQIA community, neurodivergent individuals, health care workers, and veterans. In addition, I have training in veterinary social work, which includes working with veterinarians and animal rescue workers, as well as addressing issues surrounding pet loss and grief.

Hello, my name is Stephanie and I am a neurodivergent (Autistic w/ADHD) mental health therapist. I am neurodiversity-affirming with a specialization in anxiety, trauma & PTSD. I work with adults from the comfort of their own homes via telehealth. In a world that feels like it’s on fire, I believe in creating a safe space for a collaborative therapeutic experience. With my eclectic theoretical approach, I tailor my techniques to each individual and their specific life experiences and needs. I aim to help draw awareness and expand on your innate coping strategies in order to give clients the right tools necessary to navigate life.

Providing a space of safety and acceptance to explore life issues, we work together to begin the process of change. Beginning with a solution-focused approach, we begin with your strengths. A key to this is learning to effectively use tools (coping skills) along with being able to see and understand situations differently. We work together to improve the health of your relationships, the most important one being with yourself, and then other relationships in your life. Problems with alcohol or other drugs can be addressed if that's something you want to work on.

I enjoy meeting clients' needs by starting therapy where they are comfortable, and forming a supportive relationship. Offering a safe space for diversity and equality I offer suggestions, education, and healthy perspectives in order to help facilitate growth. Helping to empower individuals I use specialized treatment methods, which include verbal processing, play therapy, sand tray therapy, and writing and drawing methods. Whether someone is looking for guidance moving through a new stage of life, or finding courage to work through a history of trauma, my ideal client is someone who is open to feedback and ready to create change.

I have found that self understanding always brings with it a measure of peace. I offer a collaborative journey to understand your unique story in an emotionally safe and respectful environment. My hope is to bring understanding to the parts of your life that seem to make no sense.

Hi there! I specialize in working with folks who are newly experiencing behaviors and emotions that are difficult to understand. Together, we can explore what those thoughts and feelings are, how best to understand them, learn about treatment approaches, and set goals. I enjoy helping build a support network that has your best interest at heart, and allows you to share your experience with those supports in a way that gives you choice and dignity. LGBTQAI+ affirming and compassionate care is the standard here, as is support around accessing reproductive healthcare.

I primarily work with women and children. I specialize in anxiety, attachment and trauma (Complex-PTSD and PTSD), depression, and mood disorders. I have training in multiple modalities and my style is warm and relationship based. I work with children five and up and consult for the very young (0-5). Supporting children overcome and manage anxiety, depression, trauma, and other challenges is such meaningful work. I have worked for 20 years with women, families and children.

Hello! Life has a way of coming at us in the most unpredictable, unimaginable ways. As such, it makes the most "put-together-person" crumble. If you are feeling overwhelmed, scared, angry, confused, alone, helpless, worthless, stressed, lost, sad.... you've come to the right place. It happens to most of us and that's what makes us human. We make mistakes, we fall down, we get hurt, life is messy, and it gets to be too much and is seemingly unmanageable for us. With some help, we will go through the process of rebuilding, stand back up and then become stronger than we were before.
